CDC extends eviction moratorium through June

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has extended the ban on evictions through June 30, a measure that ensures people who cannot afford rent due to COVID-19 restrictions can remain in their homes.

“The COVID-19 pandemic has presented a historic threat to the nation’s public health,” CDC Director Rochelle Walensky said Monday. “Keeping people in their homes and out of crowded or congregate settings — like homeless shelters — by preventing evictions is a key step in helping to stop the spread of COVID-19.”
